Beneath The Palms Of Paradise 1903 'The Fisher Maiden'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 07 Jul 2004

Beneath the palms of Paradise,
how sweet our love would seem;
yet, e'en as in the sunset skies,
the wealth of golden color dies,
so died love's golden dream.
But when heart answered heart with sighs,
when eyes in silence answered eyes,
life seemed like joy without alloy,
beneath the palms of Paradise.

O! Come with me, across the sea,
my heart and soul's most precious prize;
and tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.
O! Come with me, across the sea,
my heart and soul's most precious prize;
and tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.
And tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.

Beneath the palms of Paradise,
in dreams I linger yet;
my heart is sad; the night is long;
but still he woos with magic song,
and vows he'll ne'er forget.
In dreams these visions fond arise
and happy tears bedim my eyes,
for love's sweet sake
my heart could break,
beneath the palms of Paradise.

O! Come with me, across the sea,
my heart and soul's most precious prize;
and tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.
O! Come with me, across the sea,
my heart and soul's most precious prize;
and tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.
And tho' in vain love once again,
beneath the palms of Paradise.
